A biodegradable mesh sheet composed of polygycolic acid (Neoveil®) has been used for strengthening tissue defects or suturing together with fibrin glue (Bolheal®) in thoracic surgery and gastro- enterological surgery. Recently, there have been several reports of its application to oral and maxillofacial surgery. In this report, we describe the use of polygycolic acid sheet and fibrin glue spray for an 85-year-old male patient after partial glossectomy and radical neck dissection. The pull-through method was used to fix the remaining tongue to the mandible, and polygycolic acid sheet and fibrin glue were used to close the wound.
